    Morning all

    6 please shaggy and 2 please Bearacus

    May2013 - its ok, I laughed at Piglet too! Laughed more at my Mum who's mortified (he was with her when he did it)! Think he's quite proud of his shiner, little wally!:rotfl:

    Missrlr - well done on not letting people drive you to drink. Sounds like you had a very trying day!

    lizzyb1812 - brilliant post. :T

    Am home with poorly piglet today. he coughed till he was sick all over his bed just gone midnight last night (sorry if tmi!:eek:). Took him into bed with me and then I couldn't get back to sleep till gone 4am. Bleugh. So decided we both need a duvet day. School says loads of kids are off and the receptionsist sounded like she wanted to be home too!

    Hope everyone is keeping warm!

    Miss P

    Hi all.

    I was AF last night shaggy, so can you add it to the running tally please, so another one for the SNC too bearacus!

  • 1 more for the snc please.

    4 please Shaggy.

    Hope everyone is feeling good today. X
    Need to start again :o
  • OMG.... I didn't realise there was a heart to be had on the star chart otherwise I would most definately have posted my score last night.
    7 days AF please Shaggy - and a heart :D (thankyou v. much)

    This thread is brilliant - just had to say that, thankyou everyone.

    Antonic I don't know you, but well done for being AF all that time and I hope your health worries are reversible - the liver is an amazing healer.

    Missrlr - you simply have too much energy....well done on getting through last night :T

    Bearacus - so pleased the tooth is healing :)

    May2013 - I probably did it wrong...and 365days please could you come and do the answer to this one.... but I ended up in my Granny and Grampas house (my favourite place in the whole world) and stayed there in my head for most of yesterday - twas lovely :) (and yes....I am a loon)

    Lizzyb - thankyou...what a lovely thing to say. My problem is that I charge about and want a quick fix for everything.... well it would seem that there is no quick fix for recovering from alcoholism. And often I think to myself, well done for not drinking - have a cigarette.....and then I remember (again) that I'm not smoking either.
    It will all come right eventually - I'm trying to be patient :o
    I think when I was drinking I was permanently tired and hungover but with 6 children to organise and my work, I would bounce myself - constant loud dance music in the house, energy drinks, caffeine, anything, everything.
    And now - now it's all changed and I'm feeling a little bit lost.
    But it will come right - and you lot, you all help me so much, you will never know.

    Cleggie - just had to say hello and hope you're feeling better....and Miss Piggy - hope you have a lovely duvet day with Piglet - I think we should all have more of those :)
    Foreverhopeful - just read your underscore thing (don't know what it's called) - Need to start again :o.... I feel a bit like that.

    Only 22 more days of February and then we're moving full force into spring.........:j and sunshine and everything wonderful :):)
  • one more AFD for me please Shaggy!

    Cor it is so bitterly bitterly cold.

    Ok so the house thing....The house represents your mind. Your concious mind. The feelings, the colours, the textures etc are symbolic of your state of mind. The secet room is your unconcious; your potential. The entrance from one to another symbolises how easily you can slip from one to another. The road is symbolic of your journey between the two...for example I was in a road I was lost in as a child.:o I was obviously feeling a little lost that day.
